Hope it's great! Ed TBH Ed, I'd love to hear some of the less obvious pieces, similar to his "Motown Sound" series of 7" boxes, here's hoping......but looking forward to it nonetheless.........

Tomangoes Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 In Dickie we trust... He has a story to tell, so it's likely to include chart and non chart. The night? Love machine? Tell me it's just a rumour? The anticipation.. Ed Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Tomangoes Posted August 26, 2019 Share Posted August 26, 2019 Fairly predictable, but did we expect anything else really? Enjoyed it nonetheless Ed Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Chalky Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) Whilst predictable to us, to a mainstream radio 2 audience it probably wasn’t. Edited August 27, 2019 by Chalky Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Geeselad Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 I thought he came across well, in terms of a mainstream audience. But I've been listening to Richard on the radio for a long time. His genuine passion an knowledge puts, that dick, Charles, to shame, it's so obvious he's clueless and just chasing the cash. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Shufflin Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 (edited) really enjoyed Richard's show, made some nice observations and great choice of sounds imo, also reminded me of what a fine LP "From The Vaults" is on Natural Resources, US Edited August 27, 2019 by Shufflin Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Daved Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I enjoyed it too. Some great choices. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
The Happy Hooker Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Richard encompassed in one hour what Red Dwarf and Trevor Nelson failed to do in six hours. Still the criteria for their selection says it all "Top Motown 100 Streaming and Downloaded" a newcomer would think that Motown comprised of Lionel Richie, Diana Ross and Boyz to Men lol. Strange that nowhere in any show was a mention of Motown's first big chart success Barrett Strong's 'Money' 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Strange that nowhere in any show was a mention of Motown's first big chart success Barrett Strong's 'Money' Have to agree radio 2 dj's should have at least done a little more background research, Ken Bruce talking with Tito Jackson about how gladys Knight took them to motown then plays midnight train to Georgia. Oops buddah release from 1973 not motown Ken. Richards hour was by far the most informative. You'd have expected more from the BBC dj, s Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Soulandy Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) listening to it now. A really good show and well put out by Richard Searling. It's not everyday you hear the lesser known Motown tracks on national radio. Good stuff Edited August 28, 2019 by Soulandy Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

There is one in 5the Jobete offices as two sent to Motown, one for the labels vault and one for Jobete. The publishing arm, so I believe. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chalky Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I don’t think the show was too predictable. Maybe a lot of info the mainstream MOR audience care little about but there was some good choices by Richard. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
